When it comes to eating, San Franciscans stand together

If you think about it, there’s only one thing that unites San Franciscans of every stripe — and that’s eating and drinking.

Patronage at bars and restaurants and have become a high art in San Francisco. The city full of restaurants, from little places out in the Richmond and Sunset to world-class places, where reservations are required months in advance.

As it turns out, restaurants and bars are part of the fabric of life in the city and always have been, dating back to the Gold Rush. Eating out and drinking are part of the legacy of every San Franciscan.
